A week wandering in the Tuscan Archipelago, between Elba Island, Capraia and Corsica. So lots of sailing, sea and new friends to happily explore the wonderful and wild bays of this off-the-beaten-path corner of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Imagine yourself sitting there quietly on the starboard side while the profile of the coast recedes and dwindles on the horizon, leaving behind you the traffic of the cities, the early morning wake-up call to go to work, annoying colleagues, queues at the post office and at the supermarket, energy price increases and the war in ukraine… need i say more? Well, this is just the beginning of your week on a sailing boat between Elba, Capraia and Corsica!
The novelty of this year will be the port of disembarkation and embarkation. We decided to move directly to Elba, to be precise to the port of Rio Marina . So you can leave your car in Piombino, or get there by train which is even more convenient, and from there take the ferry that runs all day and will take you directly to the port of embarkation. By doing so we gain one day as we are already on Elba from the first evening. A perfect plan!
We will start our week with Elba and its innumerable coves, creeks, ravines, and beaches of all kinds. Once full of life and recharged the batteries of the spirit we will point the bow of the boat towards the island of Capraia.
We will cross the cetacean sanctuary where the dolphins often enjoy accompanying the boat that plows through the waves. Before sleeping at anchor in the starlight, don't miss an aperitif at sunset in Cala Rossa , so called because of the rocks that literally explode at sunset.
If the weather permits, we will then head towards the coasts of Corsica to happily explore the wonderful and wild bays of this off-the-beaten-path corner of the Tyrrhenian Sea. It will be a twenty-mile crossing in the open sea plowing the waves while the sun, the sea and the wind transport us to another dimension. It is a holiday suitable for everyone, from friends to families, from sailing boat lovers to those who perhaps this year is the right time who have decided to give it a try.
The itinerary and events are indicative and subject to possible changes based on weather conditions and safety. The skipper is excluded from all holiday expenses.

A holiday you participate in if party and drink are the things you are looking for.
Personally I would have preferred more coves and more exploration as well as more sailing. I was hoping for a 50/50 between exploration and parties but it was more a 20/80. Group too big for my taste.
As for skipper nothing to say. Good.
Mocks from the Dictionary "amount of noisy and rowdy people", this was the group, energetic and full of personality. There was a way to talk, thanks to the games and activities both on board (Top Night Karaoke) and on land (Long live the Tender Race), and to have fun, a Fluo Party on the Super Catamaran. I was hesitant about the lack of a defined program, but in reality I enjoyed the seats, told by my hero skipper Angelo, who took me in tenders everywhere, infinite patience! A week of relaxation and fun, shared with 70 people, all cute and with different stories, also thanks to the age mix! Thanks Marmaglia for letting us discover Ionian Greece, MARMAGLIA IS ON FIRE!
herewith to point out the lack of clarity on your part for the week of Cruise Elba-Capraia - Corsica, as the week included the Tour of these Three Islands but was done only the Tour of Elba, of which two days stopped at the port of Rio Marina for wind, without even going out at least for day trip, and then return to the Port in the evening, however, the Skipper Giovanni told us, that even with favorable weather conditions he would never have gone around the three islands but would only have done the tour of Elba,
Sorry you sell me a trip that includes Three Islands and then you make me a Partial? this thing does not seem correct to me
Then it happened that in the cruise, in a stop Bagno was passing a Carabinieri Boat and the Skipper Giovanni told us that if they checked he was as a friend not as a Marmaglia contract, this thing made me think !!
Yet another Marmaglia holiday and, as always, super organization: from the borders to the package party, everything wonderful! See you next time. Good wind!
First experience with the Marmaglia flotilla. Wonderful holiday and fantastic skippers!!! I recommend it to all those who want to make a beach holiday with lots of fun.
Marmaglia and is not mistaken! Met in the summer flotilla, returned with them to the first free weekend. Trained skippers and party crews... perfect combination!
To be my first experience both on a sailboat and in marmaglia it was a beautiful holiday ... unforgettable... I met wonderful people... a holiday where every minute you find a good motivation to party ... I would definitely do this holiday again!!
Thanks for everything. It was a beautiful experience. I will definitely do it again. Unfortunately the weather was not in our favor and so we lived it halfway. But I found a fabulous company.nice and very nice people. Thanks again
